AMT 1:25 "My Mother The Car" 1928 Porter model car kit
"My Mother the Car" was a popular American sitcom that aired
from 1964 to 1966, starring Jerry Van Dyke as a man who buys
a dilapidated car that turns out to be sentient and capable of
speech. The show, despite its short run, developed a cult
following and inspired merchandise, including model car kits.
AMT (Aluminum Model Toys) was a prominent manufacturer of
plastic model kits, particularly known for its detailed car models
during the 1960s and 1970s. This particular kit, featuring the
1928 Porter from the show, capitalized on the show's popularity,
offering hobbyists a chance to build a piece of television history.
These kits are now sought after by collectors of both model cars
and television memorabilia.
